I am pretty sure Compcams designed the Lunati Voodoos HFT’s for Mopars.

We have the 704 Lunati in a 10:1 383. It think it was designed long after Harold Brookshire did the .842” lifter voodoo cams. I have a lobe profile for it, it is designed for .904 dia lifters. I have seen lots of Harolds cams, I don’t think he did that one.

I haven’t heard any complaints about Blue Print engines for years. They are built about 3 hours from me at Kearney, NE. There is a ton of Blue Print engine around here. If the BBC doesn’t work out as planned, our Chevelle is getting a big block MOPAR next! LOL

It is impressive how Blue Print Engines can offer 600+ Hp engines like that 572 BBC or a 426CID Gen 3 (both are priced the same) with a 30 month 50,000 mile warrantee.

The photo was fuzzy. But I assume the is Blueprint’s 745 HP 572. I know of one running in a 72 Chevelle with a 4L80E transmission. It runs 10.90s. He seems happy with it. I just finished up a 650HP 1971 454 LS7 crate engine replica with a roller cam last winter. It wasn’t any cheaper than...

I think your better if using an 8HP70. They are more indestructible, supposedly up to 900 HP stock. There are some drag and drive guys starting to use 8HP70’s behind other brands, I think someone is offering the electronics to operate them for around $2K.

I don’t see any reason why grinding the lobe straight and making sure the lifters doesn’t hit the other lobe next to it won’t work when it is just one lobe. The cam I had was shifted left to right was from Crower, it had nearly .030” core shift left to right, but instead of one lobe, it was all...

On a flat tappet cam the lobes are tapered and the lifters are wider than the lobe. If the core shift is bad enough the lifter will jump or drop everytime it is rotated and crosses the place were the core shift is. I have seen the lifter drop .002” whenever it crosses the seem on a cam that...

That is a Lunati Voodoo HR cam. It really has to much overlap to run well with HP manifolds with the smaller cube variations. It would run ok, but the bigger engines would work better. It would work best with the HP manifolds and bigger cubes, like a 3.91” or 4.25” stroke (it is a small...

That needs a 3/32” or 5/64” welding rod. 1/8” will not work very well, too big. 1/16” might be better yet, a little harder to find.

I think this video of my car taken when at 156K. Curriousyellow71 behind the wheel.

My 09 R/T 5.7 Challenger has 170,000 on it. I put gas in it and change the oil (5w30 synthetic). I have the MDS disabled. My 06 Magnum R/T was on its second engine before it made it to 100K. Had a marshal reman in it when I bought it at 115K. I think they forgot to put in the back cam...

I am also onboard with the 2266 swap idea too if stick with simple is the goal. If you want to run on 87 octane and use off the shelf lopey cams your better of in the 8s for compression. The newer 2295 have a narrower pin and are 30 grams lighter than the old 2295s. If it is an old 2295 I...

For a comparison. A smaller rattler cam 281*/289* @006” 227*/235*@ .050” .480” ish lift 109* LSA 67* of overlap Will pump 154-165 lbs of compression with the compression dropped to 9.3 The Bullet cam I mentioned has the same overlap, 67* if it is ground on 114LSA. It pumps 165-175 lbs of...
